CARING FOR YOUR APPLIANCE

Before performing any cleaning operations, unplug the appliance from the mains electricity supply (keep ON/ OFF button “A” pressed down for more than two seconds, until OFF is displayed in both fridge and freezer compartments, then unplug the appliance). Should you fail to follow this procedure, an alarm condition may arise. WARNING: this alarm is not a sign of an anomaly. To restore your appliance’s normal operating conditions, keep ON/OFF button “A” pressed down for more than two seconds to turn the appliance off and then turn it back on and set the required temperatures.

HOLIDAY FUNCTION. Mould and bad odours forming inside your unused fridge when you go on holiday need no longer be a problem: just enable the Holiday function (from the display). This way, with limited energy consumption, the temperature of the refrigerator compartment is kept at around 12°C (you can store your make-up and beauty products in it, for example) and the freezer is operated at its minimum setting, which is essential for food preservation.

Before cleaning your refrigerator, keep ON/OFF button “A” pressed down for more than two seconds, until OFF is displayed in both fridge and freezer compartments, then unplug the appliance.

-Your appliance is manufactured with hygienic odourless materials. To preserve these characteristics, always use sealed containers for strong smelling foods to avoid the formation of odours that are difficult to remove.

-Use only a water and bicarbonate solution: Clean the internal and exterior of your appliance with a sponge soaked with a warm water and sodium bicarbonate solution, which is also a good disinfectant. If you do not have any sodium bicarbonate at home, use neutral detergent.

-What not to use: Do not use abrasive detergents, bleach or detergents containing ammonia. Never use solvent based products.

-All the removable parts can be cleaned by soaking in hot soapy water or detergent. Remember to dry thoroughly before replacing them.

-What about the back panel? Dust may deposit on the back panel and affect the proper running of the appliance. To remove dust, vacuum away the dust very carefully using the appropriate vacuum cleaner accessory.

-When the appliance is left unused for an extended amount of time. If you decide to switch your appliance off during the summer months, clean it on the inside and leave the doors open.

-Replacing the light bulb.

When replacing the lamp, disconnect the appliance from the mains, unscrew the burned out lamp and replace it with another following the steps illustrated in figure 4. Make sure that the wattage is not greater than 15W.
